CRUMBS!

Hello!
If you are reading this, chances are you've picked up a post card that looks like this:
 Thanks for checking out my blog!

Crumbs is the body of work created in my final semester of college at UNCA. I have been working since late December 2011 on these pieces and they are finally ready to be viewed! As the card states, my work uses cake as a metaphor for consumption. I have tried to put together a show that highlights the problem of gluttony and waste, but also celebrates imagination. Crumbs is on display now and will be up until May 18th. Blowers Gallery is to the left, just past the circulation desk on the main floor of  Ramsey Library.  The gallery is open for viewing any time the library is open. I hope you will check it out. And if you can, please join me for the reception from 3-6pm in Blowers Gallery on Friday, May 4th.

A note on children:
I am strongly in favor of taking children to see artwork. I am strongly in favor of having children see MY artwork. While there is no nudity or graphic imagery or anything pornographic, one of my sculptures and some of the refreshments I plan to serve are of a sexual nature. I firmly believe in being honest with kids about sexuality, but how you choose to answer any questions my work may inspire is completely up to you. ("I'll tell you when you're older" sounds perfectly legitimate to me!) I encourage people of all ages to enjoy the little world I have created. I am confident that the delight will outweigh any discomfort.

I look forward to seeing you all there! Thank you for your interest and support.
